Quick update
Should i just let it grow now? Think it needs stronger growth before i defoliate and focus on leaf size. Although still a newb and could be completely wrong haha
Thanks
Chris

I personally would re-think the branch placement a little.

To me it appears that you have two sets of bar branches.

cheers,
Jeff

You have done well. If it were mine I would remove the bottom right branch to get rid of the bar branch. Another will grow in a better position.

Just thought I would update this one. I changed the branch location as suggested and finally have a lower branch where i want it so i am letting it grow out at the moment so it can thicken. Any advice or comments will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
